Exactly what i was thinking.. much easier lol

I would of had the same issue regardless.

How long for? should be fine, not phased tbh. Its a strong flange anyway.

Last update will be kamracing gear linkages and its done. :homme:

new year; 266's, braided pipes, 23? mm m/c Feb is cambelt time then look about dropping her 25/30mm then keep her clean. No big engine plans or out im afraid. Keeping it very simple. >boring<

So what do i think about the mani then. It does IMO feel different, pulls "smoother" through the rev. Some will say its in my head but i genuinly think its much better!

I ment clamp it together with no springs or bolts to see what size you need to cut the springs to

I know what you meant, sir! i aint undoing them. They are nice and tight, has a little play so the exhaust can adjust to the engines movements but not enough to blow.

*awaits the my bolts have snapped post* ;)

Was gutted when I saw on the book of face that you're not lowering it until next year.
Give me a 10" Grinder and I'll lower it for you for free in about 15minutes.

Hur hur.

No faith....

these are 17mm bolts, not OE thin ones. ;)

*begins quoting F&F quotes.:A:


I like the tuna here

Lol....

pics of it lowered ???

No body likes the tuna here asshole.

:fcuk:

I may aswell i have full blown update. Wasnt going to bother but ok.

Its since had 266mm Bosch calipers fitted with AP fluid and Goodridge braided hoses





Every suspension part, you name it bar the beam as its mint has been replaced, all worn ect. I then decided on on B8's and 40mm 155lb Faulkners. Beam is is lowered by 40mm by IM Axles and has Powerflex bushes. Is it too harsh for a daily? no not really. I do watch the bumps more obviously.

Springs



beam bushes



B8's










Few weeks ago my gearbox side engine dropped coming round a bend at 50mph. Stopped my shaft was half out as was all the oil. :panic: ? i did yes. 20 mins later it was fixed. Did anything break? no. ;)

I blame the garage for not doing it up tight as they were the last to touch it when it had new shafts.

So yeah i offically broke down once. *flame coat on*




Polished my cam cover with stainless bolts and legit badge



Before



After Lowered, 40 front, 40mm rear.

Day i was coming home 25/4/13









;)



Whats next? Nothing much but get the paint as clean as possible. It will be getting attacked with a DA6pro next weekend. Ordering one tommorow.

WOW! I don't believe my eyes :'(. RIP trucking

Looks awesome, except the roof bars.

haha, looking back. It did look ridic so hands up. :oops:

Cheers dude :hug:

Not to everyones taste. I like them on couple days at at time.

Not to be different, everything is over played nowadays but i like how it looks so..

As long as you like them haha

GTuff, brought them to my attention. :luff:

Liked them. :D

Acutli it's

Bullshit ass hole no one like the tuna here

Roof bars are Baller and rare as fuck blad fact

:P indeed they are.

Forgot to mention i should have a 106 battery cover coming in the post at somepoint. *finally* engine bay will be done then.

so then sir mincealot , what happened to " i dont want to lower it! " ? ;)

I dont know lol. I really wasnt that fussed i guess. Then went all out on it.

Was an expensive month that. Never again. :zainy:

Main gripe atm is the paintwork on it. :(

I'll be booking it in next month for a few little jobs and a fresh wheel refurb, Silver in time for FCS and the like.

Wait he lowered it? looks standard to me trolololol.

Looking very neat.

its now down to standard height the way i see it ;)


i joke i joke, looking good homo

Aha. Cheers. :y:

:luff:

Whats the b8's like mate I went for gaz over them because I get trade discount with gaz.

I can feel the dips/bumps in the road more, odd times ive shuddered lol. I can feel most bumps coming from the rear. but overall fine for a daily.

As for B road stuff I love it. It feels more 'stable' 'controlled' going through bends and not like all over the place like it was. Only way i can describe the car now is its like a little go kart on a railway line lol. The rear follows where as before it felt like the car was falling over itself to keep sterdy (if you get me?) But thats because ive ran standard for so long so will say that.

Im not the best explaining stuff dude, ends up a muddle lol.

Looks much better lowered John kind of an end of an era lol!.

The roof bars are gay as fuck though lol!

Cheers Jamie. Yup that "lowering" is ended now. i'll be known as the guy that had the 4x4 Saxo. :zainy:

Lols. I'll grab more pics of them later this week, its had a few good compliments with them on believe it or not ;) :P

Very clean vts you have buddy....

[QUOTE=GTuff;6302625]Acutli it's

[quote=Jay_;6302694]Why is it I know all of the first one bit of the second one and on word of drift.... Wabaki! Haha

First time she had snow foam on her.. need to play with it abit. Came out thick ish but didnt stick on the car long. ¬¬









before anyone says. "your yard looks shit" yeh i know. Careless.

Your yard looks good mate.

What you using in your snow foam. I been messing for agers and at the min Im using a cap of maxi suds 2 squirts of megs gold and a 4 squirts of snowfoam and the rest boiling water. Stiicks like a bastard and smells like you can eat it.

Cheers. The cracks on it make it look unique.

I just put some snow foam in, some warm water and tried it. It come out thick but not like i have seen on vids i watched lastnight. It was covered well but not as good. It took less then a min to get like it did in the pics. :( i didnt think to put some megs gold shampoo in :wall: I'm doing dads car tommorow so will try it again on his.

As im wanting a das6pr0. Whats peoples thoughts on this?

http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polish.../prod_842.html

So i bought that DA6Pr0 above. Spend 10hrs or so on it today.. :cool: *tiring

Got rid of a few marks i hated looking at and the first little scuff i got from the first carpark twat and made my paint swirl free. She looks decent. FINALLY. Pics below. Its due a service this weekend and i'll be ordering some new ramps as its been ages since ive been underneath scrubbing it clean so. That next!

so went out with my DSLR and took pics

Looks spot on that mate perfect!

P.S roof bars are gay as fuck.

You missed a bit.

Looks super tidy! What products did you use with machine polisher? did you do a cut, polish and glaze?

Get some fresh number plates.

Wow. Just wow. Looks a beaut. I might have to get mine the same.
